Pumpkins, known for being orange.

Famous for being spooky or pie.

Nobody thinks much about them, so let's have some fun.

Let's find out why pumpkins are secretly incredibly fascinating. Hey there folks.

Hey there, Cipelopods.

Welcome to a whole new podcast episode. A podcast all about why being alive is more interesting than people think it is. My name is Alex Schmidt and I'm not alone. I'm joined by my co-host Katie Golden. Katie! Yes. What is your relationship to or opinion of Pumpkins? That was my first Halloween costume.

My, I was just like when I was almost exactly one years old, put me in one of those

pumpkin jumpers where it's like real puffy.

So you're sort of surrounded by an orb made out of fabric.

It's such a good baby costume because like like, baby can't really move around all that much

anyway, so, you know, just like pumpkin.

Yeah, right.

They're round and cute.

They're little pumpkin.

Yeah.

Yeah.

You could even hollow out a big pumpkin, put some wheels on it, and then it's a baby mobile.

And I've seen pictures of really young babies inside of a pumpkin as a trend now.

And also our baby nephew did like a photo shoot with pumpkins and a fall setting.

You know, it's a big youth thing.

It really is.

Other than that, I don't really like pumpkin pie.
